Markdown twin of that page. Append `.md` to any Orla page URL to get one.

Claude Code speaks remote MCP directly. Nothing to install and no key to paste: the browser opens on Orla's consent page.

Server URL: https://app.orla.finance/api/mcp/personal

#### Add it from the shell, sign in with /mcp

A line in the terminal adds it, and the sign-in happens on a page in your browser.

- Where it is added: In the current project by default, or for every project with --scope user.
- Authenticate: Run /mcp inside Claude Code and pick Orla; the browser opens on Orla's consent page and the terminal picks the connection up.
- As a plugin instead: claude plugin install orla@orla brings the same personal connection with four bookkeeping skills beside it. The commands are on the skill page.

```
# the remote server, no package to install
claude mcp add --transport http orla \
  https://app.orla.finance/api/mcp/personal

# then, inside Claude Code
/mcp
```

#### Ask between two commits

- What did I spend on hosting last quarter?
- Which rows this month have no category?
- Which bills are due this week, from the bills report?
- Book yesterday's 40 EUR taxi to Transport.

#### It reads and records. It does not pay

- What it cannot do: Pay anyone. The payment tools are not in the list it is given, and are refused by name if asked.
- What it costs: Nothing, and it takes none of the agent seats in your plan. Reading is unmetered; what it records comes out of your plan's monthly allowance of agent writes, and the free plan has a small one.
